CryptoStream calls Write when it shouldn't

Hi!

In my code I create a CryptoStream around another stream of my own, with
CryptoStreamMod e.Read. So I just can read from the CryptoStream. When I
close that CryptoStream, however, the underlying stream's Write() method is
called, with an empty buffer (offset and count-parameters are also 0). My
streams' CanWrite property returns false, so the CryptoStream should not
call Write(). It shouldn't call Write() at all, because I created it with
CryptoStreamMod e.Read.
The problem with it is, the Write() method of my stream throws a
NotSupportedExc eption, and that's ok because it doesn't support writing. But
the CryptoStream doesn't seem to catch the exception, so it is directly
raised and executions stops. I cannot work with that but I still have to
throw the exception. It makes no sense not having my Write() method throw
that Exception.
What's going wrong ?

Thanks
Daniel

Are there any know problems with using a MemoryStream as a backing store for a CryptoStream? I'm trying to simply encrypt and decrypt text in memory. I'd like to create some simple methods to encrypt text before writing to a database and decrypt it when reading it back. I figured I'd use a MemoryStream that I can either store as a blob or convert to a string and store as a varchar. Anyway, I can't get the CryptoStream to write to the...

Ok, with the help of some examples found on the web and some minor modifications on our own, we have a simple and working encrypt and decrypt solution. It runs as a service, watches for files with a specific extension in a specific directory. The files are uploaded by FTP to this directory. The service then does the following steps: 1) Verify it can open the file (so we know it's fully uploaded). 2) Try to decrypt the file with known...

Hi :) I'm having some major trouble with an XML Client/Server application that I am writing. I am using NetworkStream with CryptoStream to Read and Write XML between computers. Now, whenever I write the XML, the Server section which uses the XMLTextReader Class will not accept EndElements period, and neither the ReadStartElement or ReadEndElement will work properly. However, if I only send to WriteStartElements over the network, the...

To keep this short, assume the function working_test() works perfectly (because it does), while failing_test() is not.

I have the following code that's taken and modified from a got_dot_net example. I'm trying to decrypt an Xml file that's been encrypted. I can dump the decrypted stream to the console, but if I try to load that into XmlTextReader, it throws XmlException. I'd appreciate your help. //create file stream to read encrypted file back FileStream fsread = new FileStream(args, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);

A client creates a connection to the server using the TCPListener/Client classes and transfers data via a NetworkStream. When the client connects, the server creates a process and redirects its StandardOut to traverse back over the network to the client. I want to encrypt this data and the code I have is below. However, occasionally during processing, I receive an exception stating the PKCS7 padding is invalid and cannot be removed. I have...

Hey All, I posted this to the Crypto users group and forgot to add the VB.Net users group. I apologize for any confusion.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
